The Hobbit Hole XXV - Fare you well! Fare you well!
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 10/15/2005 7:13:08 AM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

Fare you well! Fare you well!

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

It's said that people who suddenly come into lots of money lose their friends

I can assure you I would still be your friend if you win :~D

Hehehe....that was just the beginning.

There was the guy who wanted to know why he couldn't have his Cross on his desk, but the company publishes stories about Hinduism...where's the tolerance on the company's part?

HR Lady dropped the "T" word pretty quickly.

When we win, I look forward to just taking life easy, never having to hear an alarm clock, never having to go to work, spend some time with the grand kids and just generally do what I want to do.

Oh, wait a minute, I already do all of that.

I took some notes. :)

Hopefully, I'm done with all the "touchy feely" workshops for the year.

Yeesh... Auditors, auditors, auditors... Two from one outfit and one from another... all asking for stuff. The same stuff, but they can't share with each other, so we have to sit and do everything twice.

Home tomorrow. Back monday. %-}

Perhaps you could have a character named "Sarbanes of Oxley" that at some point gets taken out with a head shot from some whacked out IT guy in a clock tower.

...or something. [sip]

....and then there was the question about whether sites in other countries have to do diversity training, or just in the US....
